I'd always thought I was a good person. Now I wasn't sure. Laughed out loud at this part. "It wasn't until my interviewer for a position at The Torture Center questioned my unflinching loyalty to authority -- that,…
Capitalism is the most efficient economic system.
The article, your comment and the argument they make, that this effect -- if it exists -- should be highly visible across all strata of society, are taking a ton of assumptions for granted. There are a number of…

Never read my posts again lol
What is the point of saying someone can "speak" a language, much less claiming they're "fluent"? These are the most useless, nebulous definitions. You can spend an entire life learning a language for 8 hours a day and…
maybe try your unfunny puns on reddit
Wow, they made a deliberate effort to design glyphs that all look exactly the same. Every single letter written in cursive would be indistinguishable from 5-6 others.
It is maddening that there is even still a "discussion" happening. Tabs for indentation, spaces for alignment. Didn't even get mentioned in the article. All the pros, zero cons. Enough of this. Enough, enough. "Use tabs…
